Tree planting festival is not only an environmental protection activity but also a beautiful cultural tradition, demonstrating the sense of responsibility of each citizen towards nature and the sustainable development of their homeland and country.
Following the policy of the Bac Ninh Provincial Party Committee and People's Committee on launching a tree planting and reforestation movement associated with green urban development, Kinh Bac ward proactively coordinated with Vo Cuong ward to organize the "Tree Planting Festival in Eternal Gratitude to Uncle Ho" in the Spring of 2026 at the Ho Chi Minh Memorial Temple - Van Mieu Park, a location of special political, historical, and cultural significance for Bac Ninh province. This project is currently under construction on a scale of approximately 4.7 hectares. The project not only expresses the gratitude and respect of the Party Committee, government, and people towards Uncle Ho, but also serves as a vivid symbol contributing to the education of patriotic traditions, the spirit of great unity, and the aspiration for progress of the heroic and cultured homeland of Bac Ninh.

Immediately after the launching ceremony, Provincial Party Secretary Nguyen Hong Thai and other leaders planted trees in the grounds of the Ho Chi Minh Memorial Temple - Van Mieu Park.
